Scored across 5 tools
Each tool targets a distinct operation: device selection, device listing, app launching, key sending, and text typing. There is no overlap in their purposes.
All tools follow a consistent 'gtv_verb_noun' pattern (e.g., gtv_launch_app, gtv_list_devices), making the naming predictable and easy to understand.
With 5 tools, the server covers the essential remote control operations for Google TV devices without being overly narrow or bloated.
The tool set covers device management, navigation, text input, and app launching. A minor gap might be the lack of a tool to retrieve device info or current state, but the core remote control functionality is well-covered.
